Hi,
I couldn't get bmp subs from subrip imported with the colours correct into DVDLab Pro.
I came across a post on mmbforums; an edited version of which appears below (it seems to work fine). Credit to the original authors Cy-DVD-Cyber & mitja.
1. Start SubRip and choose 'Save SubPictures as BMP'.
2. Click on 'Start'.
3. Enter a folder to save the bmps.
4. Wait for the first Subtitle and choose 'Sonic DVD Creator'.
5. Click on 'Custom Colors and Contrast'.
6. Color#1 is the backround. Choose Black.
7. Color#2 is the outline. Choose White . (Will be black later).
8. Color#3 is the main color. Choose here Red. (Will be white or yellow later).
9. Color#4 is the semitransparent black (used for antialiasing). This you can keep. It looks grey on the screen.
10. Click on 'OK' and wait for it to extract all the subs.
11. Choose 'Output Format' and 'Set Output Format'.
12. Choose 'Sonic Scenarist (*.sst)' and click on 'Convert to this Format'.
13. Now click on the Disk-Icon to save your .sst file.
14. Import .sst file into DVDLab Pro.
15. In DVDLab Pro;
set global font to white and outline to 'thick outline'.
16. Set bottom margin to 25 or whatever you prefer (check in preview window - zoom off).
17. Check the frame-rate is ok, click 'generate subtitle stream'
Regards,
Bob
In retrospect, I should have posted this in the subs forum; which I have now done. If a mod feels this is an inappropriate post for this forum, please delete.
